Lakeville, Conn. (August 21).

Dennis Trebing, who started in third took home the checker in Round 11 of 14 for the BFGoodrich/Skip Barber National presented by Mazda finished took home the checker flag. Spencer Pigot, starting sixth, finished second by 0.017 seconds and Isaac Lyons, who started 11th worked his way up to finish third.
